Hi Ed,
Thanks for your messages. How are you settling into things in Manchester? Are you actually back at Uni now?
You may have answered this already but I was wondering, what is your situation? I mean, mine is that I was at Uni but I left coz of depression, blah blah. If you don't mind answering, what are you doing at the mo? And what are you being treated for? And what are your meds?
Anyway, if you have any time to answer I have a little quick question. This week I'm starting on Aripiprazole. I know AP's work by decreasing dopamine levels in areas of the brain where there is too much. But the doc also said that this drug increases it in areas where there is not enough, so basically it constantly modulates the dopamine levels. ANYWAY the question is, is this specific to Aripiprazole do you know? Or do others of the atypicals do the same?
Anyway speak soon! Take care, Kate xxxx
